Summary
Clodsire is a Ground/Poison-type Pokémon introduced in Generation 9, known for its laid-back demeanor and surprising defensive capabilities. It is the Paldean evolution of Wooper.
Type: Ground / Poison
Abilities:
- Poison Point: The opponent has a 30% chance of being poisoned if it makes contact with Clodsire.
- Water Absorb: Restores HP if hit by a Water-type move, nullifying the damage.
- Hidden Ability (Unaware): Ignores the opponent’s stat changes when attacking or defending, making it especially effective against setup sweepers.
Physical Characteristics:
- Clodsire is a large, rounded amphibian-like Pokémon with stubby limbs and a wide, content smile.
- Its back features small spines that can release poison when threatened.
- It has a brown, muddy coloration with dark patches and a squat, durable build.
Behavior and Habitat:
- Clodsire is known for its docile and peaceful personality, spending much of its time lounging in wetlands or muddy riverbanks.
- Despite its slow appearance, it is capable of sudden counterattacks using its poison-coated spines.
- It lives in the Paldea region and is typically found near marshy terrain.
In Battle:
- Clodsire’s Ground/Poison typing makes it immune to Electric-type moves and resistant to Fairy, Bug, Rock, and Fighting attacks.
- It functions well as a defensive wall thanks to its solid HP and supportive move pool.
- With Unaware, it becomes a strong counter to stat-boosting opponents, ignoring Attack, Defense, or Speed increases.
- Water Absorb provides excellent utility in team synergy by giving it immunity to Water-type moves.
Evolution:
- Clodsire evolves from Paldean Wooper starting at level 20.
Interesting Facts:
- Clodsire is considered the Paldean counterpart to Quagsire but does not evolve from regular Johto Wooper.
- Its smile and plodding nature have made it a fan favorite among players of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
- Despite its goofy look, it is capable of shutting down aggressive attackers with the right strategy.
